India based health company Olena and France based ingredient company Naturex are collaborating through Ingenium to bring Gingest™ to the global market. Gingest™ is a new, highly standardized ginger extract powder for natural digestive health applications.
Ingenium is Naturex’s Open Innovation Program. Gingest™ is a new, highly standardized ginger extract powder for natural digestive health applications.
Gingest™ was developed using Olene’s innovative and patented new technology, Aqueosome®. This solvent-free and safe process makes it possible to obtain ginger oleoresin powder while retaining a high level of standardization of active compounds (greater than 26%).
With the launch of Gingest™, it is now possible to achieve high content of the key active ingredients in ginger in a single small capsule (160mg only).
More than 40 clinical studies have demonstrated ginger’s benefits for digestive health and its antiemetic-effect.
Alexis Manfré, Global Category Manager Health & Nutrition for Naturex said: “Our partnership with Olene enables us to bring to market a new natural digestive health solution that delivers on all of the dietary supplement industry’s key priorities: traceability, purity, efficacy, high levels of concentration in small volumes, and ease of use in multiple applications. Our goal with Gingest™ is to set a new benchmark for highly standardized ginger powder and to begin educating the public about the documented benefits of gingerols and shogaols for digestive health.”
Vivek A. Parachur, Co-founder and CEO of Olene said: “Through Naturex, we found a very strategic and resourceful partner in bringing our Aqueosome® technology and in particular, Gingest™, to the market. We are very happy to be partnering with Naturex, a company that embodies the same values as us in its work culture to ensure that the consumer gets the most scientifically validated product. We are most certain that Naturex’s credibility, market insights and global presence will make Gingest™ the best-in-class product in its category.”
